Dear Youth

First lie they tell us we're not worthy
To have purpose as a friend
So we live in fake clouds of bravery
Slave to the latest trends
Don't you know we're warriors
Young backs that do not bend
Don't you know we're warriors
Dear youth, Suffering may try to sensitize us
But apathy is just evil's ploy
Our fears will try paralyze us
And tears are not a decoy
Are you brave enough to speak life into this boy
Are you brave enough to be intoxicated with joy
Joy, Joy
Our blessings call for more than this
Our burdens call for more
Our kingship calls for more than this
Oh kings what have we done
Oh kings what have we done
In our hands there is a life
In our hands there is a life
In our hands there is a light
He'll be there pending for your thoughts
And tell you to keep the change
He'll pay a pound now for your flesh
And tell you you can never change
Are you brave enough to speak life into these bones
Brave enough to be intoxicated with joy
